Not going to review the code (I'll leave others to do that), but a quick reminder to please include the full context when uploading diffs.
Thinking about the case-sensitivity issue and after chatting with another colleague, it occurred to me that we should probably document the actual behaviour of case sensitivity in the llvm-ar documentation (not looked at the exact agreed-upon behaviour yet, but saying something like "filenames are written case-sensitively, but on Windows all filename comparisons are performed case-insensitively" or whatever the equivalent would be is probably a good idea). This is because it is not unheard of for users to cross-build an archive on Windows that will later be used on Linux.
